Division of Biology Seminar 1xbet online games login 11
Submitted by 1xbet online games login
Kristi Montooth, University of Nebraska, Lincoln, will present "Evolutionary Genetics of Energetics: Connecting the Evolution of Physiologies and Genomes" as part of the Division of Biology Seminar Series at 4 p.m. Friday, 1xbet online games login 11, in 221 Ackert Hall.
The abstract for the lecture is based on organisms that have evolved diverse physiological strategies that enable life in nearly every corner of our planet, from the consistently hot and humid tropics, arid deserts and cold poles, to the highly variable temperate forests and tidal shores.
1xbet online games login 's lab aims to mechanistically dissect physiological responses to the environment in order to understand the complex gene-gene and gene-environment interactions that determine trait evolution, shape genomes, and give rise to tremendous physiological diversity across the tree of life.
Montooth will present 1xbet online games login on energetic traits in mitochondrial-nuclear genotypes of Drosophila that illustrates how they use physiology as a focused, biologically informed lens to elucidate how genetic variants interact with the environment to determine fitness — a central question for understanding adaptive evolutionary change. Montooth will then show how this 1xbet online games login led them to test predictions of a model of compensatory molecular evolution in the aminoacyl tRNA synthetase proteins. She will conclude by introducing a new project in the lab that focuses on ontogeny, plasticity and the membranes of metabolism.
